The Lair

ooof, that's rough. Do you have to go to work today?

 

Yup. I have to. I am getting ready for 9 state surveys next week so it is keeping me busy.

 

I'm just to damn cheap to pay some $90/hour for stuff i can do myself and on top of that the guy doing the working is probably not even getting a 3rd of it. That's what really infuriates me.

 

That would be me. I will much rather save some money & spend somewhere else. I also like the peace of mind knowing I took it apart & put it back together without the worry of anything being left loose or off.

 

Must be in the water...... My daughter was up twice last night. I know thats only a 1/4 of your wake ups but she usually sleeps the entire night.

 

I usually bring over the mechanic from work and we bullshit, have a couple beers, and cook some steaks. I like having a second set of hands and might as well have some experience. I have offered $$ but he won't take it. He just says sell me the truck when your done.

 

My kiddo is theething so the fuzzines is very random. Tonight it just happened to be between 11pm & 5am

I know I mentioned it to @MarX , having a mechanic friend is always great to have

 

@tcBob If I click on the little arrow next to someone's quote, to go back to what they were quoting in the first place, nothing happens. Didnt know where to put this..

 

Works for me

 

Got to shake a 4-star admirals hand and have a short conversation with him today. For anyone unaware, that's the highest rank you can achieve in the military, and he's a huge deal. It was pretty cool! And now we're eating cake.

 

still doesnt work for me. Im on my work computer now. And doesnt work on my phone either.

Im running around in circles at work. They are having me do BS crap. But its busy work. I am looking for other jobs/working on a Cover Letter.

 

At least you are inside. I am working on a future parking lot, under the hard sun, and dealing with all the ideas of my bosses (yes bosses, 3 bosses, with 3 differents opinions). Too many chiefs, not enough indians! But I know that when I'll be done here, the parking will be beautiful haha

 

There is too much corporate BS here.

 

@fatfurious2 are you free tuesday? I'm helping out Danny and am gonna let him have my truck for the week for his brake thing. I may need you to drive me home if Kara can't do it.

 

next week? I am working a weird split shift. 4pm-4am.

 

Yeah, after AOAA. Ideally it'd be around noon to try and miss the shitshow that is traffic. If not I'll just have kara do it later in the day.

 

That plus cake makes for an awesome day!

 

Can you get these things for the next camping trip? Im sure MRS EST will enjoy.

I should be able to make it. Text me, and if I dont answer in 10 minutes, call. I will wake up if I hear the call.

This is how it used to be when I was on night shift. I would work 8pm-8am. Sleep until 12 noon, then be awake for 2-3 hours. Then take a 3 hour nap, and do it all over again. If you didnt call, then I wouldnt hear it.

 

Getting sleep on night shift is rough! I have to take melatonin. Also I'll just see if Kara can do it, since her car gets better mileage and will be less of an inconvenience.
